A Little Cuban Spot in Lakeview

The tagline for this new palm-tree-bedecked one-roomer on Broadway is “experience the taboo.” Taboo,
apparently, refers to Cuban sandwiches, ropa vieja and fried bananas. But it’s BYOB—so bring your own
rum in case you’d like to experience a Cuba Libre.

A Fall Denim Sale. With Beer.

The Denim Lounge has combined its two floors into one. But good news: it still has a lot of brands like
Hudson, AG and 7 for All Mankind. Better news: you’ll take 20% off your purchase. Best news: they’ll be
pouring gratis beer. Don’t spill it on your new jeans.

CHURCH’S KICKIN’

A New British Shoe Emporium

Your feet say a lot about you. Lately, they’ve been saying you need new shoes. And they’ve also been
saying it with an English accent. Which is weird. But we assume they’re just excited about legendary
British shoemaker Church’s new Gold Coast location. Just follow their lead.

Sunday

On Sunday, you’ll want to get outside. Go on a date. Throw a picnic. Bring a personal chef. Actually, no.
Bring dozens of chefs, and some sommeliers and winemakers. Or just go to Chicago Gourmet, the haute version
of Taste of Chicago. Much simpler.
